Spywitness: Bring On the X-Games!
By Jenny Peters As the X-Games 14 competition rolls into Staples Center and the Home Depot Center from July 31 to August 3, the parties roll into town, too. Wednesday night's kickoff bash at the Key Club on Sunset was sponsored by Oakley; maybe those free shades being handed out to VIPs were what caused the fire marshals to shut down entrance by 11 p.m.? Luckily, most of the actors, athletes, and Games competitors were already inside by then, jamming to the sounds of Lil Jon, T-Pain, and Eclectic Method and sucking on canisters of Oxygen Plus, the 90% pure oxygen being handed out in the VIP dungeon downstairs. A bevy of beauties - Christina Milian, Sophie Monk, Adrienne Frantz, Edyta Sliwinska, and Nikki Dubose - competed with a herd of handsome guys in the usual Hollywood party best-looking showcase; depending on your perspective, male models Kehoe, Paul Vandervort, and Maurice Townsell and hot actors Hill Harper, Emrhys Cooper, James Kyson Lee, and John Hensley just might have been the winners. But the fete was really all about the athletes, the X-Games dudes and dudettes. Skateboarders/snowboarders Colby West, Fabrizio Santos, and Ryan Sheckler checked out their female counterparts (Lin-Z Adams Hawkins and Chantelle Sladics), while everyone wondered what Barry Bonds was doing at the celebration. Perhaps he's looking for a new sport, now that pro baseball has let him (and his steroid-use scandal) go? ![]()
